Subject: short selling when share prices are falling
Please do not allow short selling when share prices are falling.
SEC Studies Lifting Ban on Selling Short When Prices Falling
New York: The Securities and Exchange Commission may allow short selling
when share prices are falling, repealing a prohibition adopted in the
agency's earliest days to prevent a rerun of the 1929 crash.
This would allow for improper and unfair manipulation, PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS.
